Something gone wrong after oil change

They flood for a reason. The most common one is the gas is going in, and the plugs do not fire. The reason for the plugs not firing are bad plug or bad wire or bad coil. My opinion is that the coils go first, and foul the plugs. I would look into 4 new coils then clean the plugs. I got mine from Mazmart, but some auto stores are stocking them now. Coils are a maintenance item on this car, or at least the initial version is short lived. I have a set of the version B coils in now, but they only have 20K or so miles on them. I plan on changing at 30 to be safe. BHR sells an upgraded ignition that makes the coil changing process go away. I is supposed to last, and lots of folks seem to like it.
You did not say how many miles were on the car. That would help decide if you need plugs as well. If you are short cash, and the coils are old, likely they are the problem. They are more expensive than the plugs, but no plug, new or old, is going to fire if it is not getting enough juice.
Good luck.
